Each row is a county-allocated estimate of U.S. House votes for this district — county returns apportioned onto its boundary, not precinct-counted. “Vote lead” is the estimated local lead here, not necessarily the winner of the full contest.
With a 2024 presidential margin exceeding 35 points, this district sits far outside competitive territory, reflecting a rural or exurban constituency whose partisan lean has remained consistent across multiple cycles.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 56.2 points in 1912 and a Republican high of 49.2 points in 1972. Between 2020 and 2024 the district moved 1.9 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 35.8 points.
A population of 86,773, a 68% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $65,686 describe the district. The district's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of State House District 39 and State House District 7.
